Liked: Wifi throughout albeit a little slow at times, the bar has cheep drinks and great place to meet other travellers, the tour guide for the dachau tour is great and well worth it. Secure lockers and large rooms is great as well as an elevator instead of steps when u have heavy luggage.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Liked: It was really clean and well located near the main stationstation and the city center

Disliked: Small bathroom forma 6 people and kitchen or place to eat your meal

The property's response is...

Hi from Munich! Yep. The kitchen problem. It IS a shame I know. Unfortunately it is chronic and there will be no solution until the world is changed and German bureaucracy will have to burn in hell for all eternity. And beyond. Aaaaanyway the matter of aching fact is that we're not allowed to have a kitchen due to fire safety regulations. Check. We're so sorry about that! Have some peanuts and take it easy! :)

Liked: The location is very good.

Disliked: For domitory the price is too expensive for each person. The breakfast should have more variety such as boiled egg, sausage.

The property's response is...

Hi there! Thanks very much for your comments. That may be but also the rents in Munich are too high. ;) Oh, and we'd LOVE to offer fancy stuff like eggs, bacon and all that stuff! But the matter of aching fact is that we're not allowed to have a kitchen due to fire safety regulations. Check. We're so sorry about that! Have some peanuts and take it easy! :)

Liked: ALMOST everything. They have an awesome chill out room with hammocks and sofas. There's a bar with good atmosphere. The breakfast is not included but is very cheap in my opinion and well worth the price. You get to choose whatever bed is available which I prefer. They have PCs. The location is very good, just a 10-15 minute walk from the bus station, and even less from the train station. The facilities and the dorms are kept very clean. If you don't need the internet (read below) this is a perfect hostel.

Disliked: THE INTERNET CONNECTION. Really was just awful. At first I thought it may have been my phone but tried in other two devices, and asked other guests and it was the same. I had to go to a Starbucks to book some tickets. If you need to use the internet for work or something important think it twice before coming here. If they fix this they'll be perfect.

Liked: Location. Breakfast good but extra cost. The walking tour they recommend is fantastic.

Disliked: It was very overpriced at 24 euro/night for 6 bed dorm. Breakfast was extra, which shouldn't have been at the price paid. Wifi was so poor as to make it almost impossible to even check email. Caters to big groups of loud drunk people, but it's a mega-hostel so it's to be expected. We didn't have other options.

The property's response is...

Hi there! I'm very sorry that you didn't like it here. Of course party crowds are not for everybody. Concerning the wifi problem we're already labouring like Sissyphus on solutions to improve its performance. That price may seem high to you but remember that Munich is a ludicruously expensive city, esp. around our area. There are simply no smaller hostels because it wouldn't work financially. Please believe me when I say that we're already scratching on the limit. Anyway, happy travels!

Liked: quite overpriced, and there is not kitchen. Although rooms were clean and the location was good walking distance to most things. The bar was a good place to meet other travellers.

Disliked: no kitchen, breakfast was not included, overpriced

The property's response is...

Hi from Munich! The reason for not including the breakfast is that we figured it might be more convenient for you guys to be able to opt for brekkie or no. And yep. The kitchen problem. It IS a shame I know. Unfortunately it is chronic and there will be no solution until the world is changed. Anyway, the matter of aching fact is that we're not allowed to have a kitchen due to fire safety regulations. Check. We're so sorry about that! Have some peanuts and take it easy! :)

Liked: Clean rooms and toilets,decent breakfast ( not included to the price but available for around 3.50 euro), helpful staff and nice&cheap beer in the bar. Close to the city centre and all public transportation

Disliked: Nothing really. Maybe, just at night time the area (hauptbahnof and surroundings) doesnt look secure.

Liked: Excellent location by the train station.

Disliked: I thought the breakfast buffet could be much better.

The property's response is...

Hi there! Yeah sorry, we ran out of caviar. ;) Just joking. In fact, you can't get more for € 3.90 in Munich. Average breakfast prices range from € 5 - 10.- and they are NOT all you can eat. I'm very sorry but we're already operating at the limit when it comes to this. Of course we could fry some eggs & bacon (...sigh...) if Bavarian authorities would allow us to operate a kitchen. Check. So have a yoghurt & toastie and feel proud about your wholesome diet. :) Stay safe & happy travels!

Liked: This is a very well run and well maintained hostel that has everything a backpacker could need (except a kitchen, but they can't help that!). The dorms are massive and each person has a secure locker. There is also an ensuite and table and chairs in each room so plenty of room to spread out. Each bunk has their own reading light and PowerPoint. The hostel has posters with all the information you could possibly need for accessing all the local attractions which means you can be a bit more independent and not have to ask them for everything. Plenty of tours on offer too. Breakfast is not included and costs €3.80 but is very good value. Laundry is also good value at €5.50 to wash and dry a load.
